MudRun training…..(wait) I see, TIRES!

9 of Union counties best (and YHC) showed up at the Sun Valley AO to get a little taste of the mudrun sans the mud.

The Thang:

Mosey to nice grassy field for Warmup-  SSH x 25, IW x 25, Slow merkin x 20, Hill Billy x 25, Shore Shoulders x 10 (Circles forwar/backward, Up, in front, etc)

Mosey to Playgroud:  Partner Up.  Pt #1- Jump ups x 20, Pt# 2 Pullups x 10; flapjack, rinse and repeat x 4; Plankarama

Indian run to soccer field:  Wheelbarrow  50 yds, flapjack; Crab-barrow x 25 yds (ouch), Bearcrawl x 100 yds.

Mosey to Football stadium/track:  Pt# Zigzag teh stadium stairs while Pt# 2 does a lap; flapjack x 3

Mosey to Obs course ( oh wait, Q spots innocent tractor tires that start calling us over); Flip tires up and back relay race….fun!

Now, mosey to Obstacle Course, Run through one time.  Plank, Jail break AYG to shovel flag.

Darn it, Shovel flag touching the ground- 10 burpee penalty for all

COT

Naked Moleskine:

It was great to be out in beautiful Union Co, with some of the pax YHC had not seen in quite some time.  And it was great to meet some new faces.  UC is growing, come on out and join them.  Sun Valley is a great AO, it’s got everything including Tractor TIRES just waiting for you to flip em!  YHC could not resist the temptation.

Big welcome to FNG, David, now know as Big Trade…Hershel Walker lookalike.  He was EH’d by Zorro who instructs his 2.0 in fencing.  We hope to keep seeing you at F3.

Strong work by everyone out this am…we covered a lot of distance and got a full body workout.

Crab-barrow is akward and tough on the triceps.  Stadium stairs followed by a 400 will take the wind right out of ya…of course the Mudrun will do that too.

Late Show, Game Show, Espresso….these guys like to rhyme in the UC.

Thanks to HH, CT, and GJ for letting me come out and lead the fine men of UC.  God bless you guys.

Announcements:  Keep Zipadee in your prayers, F3 Golf, Mudrun next weekend but there will be Outland.

Thanks for leading us SC. Great to finally work out together (like the BRR wasn’t a workout). You are definitely welcomed back anytime. Always appreciate you guys in Up N Over van #2 who made me feel like we had known each other for years.

Happy Easter to all the UC brothers!

Loved that look on your face SC when you saw the tires. TIRES!!??? lol

It’s been a pleasure getting to know you this year at Skunkworks and seeing my progress since my first SC beatdown Good Friday 2014.

Great Q.

And thanks again for the impromptu running with me at at Joe Davis. #ISI

I’ll miss you Outland brothers (that aren’t running with me next week at the mud run) this month. I’m out of Outland until May now. All good stuff though, mud run, Q school and a 5k with Tough Skins. Like Byron used to tell us at his weeknight boot camps, “this should prepare you to go out into the world an conquer bigger, tougher fitness challenges.” Or something along those lines. We should all be striving to push and do more, our bodies weren’t designed to be complacent.

DT out (and rambling as always).
